Mike Connolly begins his junior campaign as a cornerstone of the
Spartan lineup in 2009. Connolly, who will hit in the middle of the
Spartan order, will see most of his time at either designated
hitter or in left field. Connolly hit .324 in 40 games last year
with 26 runs scored, 16 RBI, six doubles, and two home runs. He has
good plate discipline as he coaxed 15 walks and had an on-base
percentage of .382. The coaching staff has seen a maturity in
Connolly that will allow him to relax at the plate and be one of
the top hitters in the conference. Defensively, Connolly has
improved his arm strength as he is a solid leftfielder. Connolly is
a secondary education-social studies major and is the son of Frank
and Ruth Connolly.
